AUSTRALIAN SUV REVIEWS

BMW M3 review
Do an extra two doors make any difference?

Abarth 595 Competizione review
Fiat’s piccolo-sized hot-hatch still offers big grins

2016 Lotus Exige S Roadster review
Now you can get the supercharged, track-focused Lotus Exige S as a ragtop. Has it lost its razor edge?

2015 Mini Cooper JCW First Drive Review
Our first local drive of Mini’s performance flagship finds a rewarding hot hatch with speed and class to burn.

2016 Subaru Forester tS review
Subaru is about to bring us a new flagship Forester, adding an STi-tuned chassis to the turbo XT. It shows promise…

2015 Toyota RAV4 Review
The Toyota RAV4 is a deservedly popular mid-sized SUV. Strengths include low-cost servicing and great front seats. This review covers RAV4s prior to the December 2015 facelift.

2015 Holden Astra VXR First Drive Review
Hot hatch reload with a Holden badge. Quick, sharp dynamically, and aggressively priced, the VXR is a primo hot hatch option.

2016 Peugeot 308 GTi 270 review
Peugeot is about to drop a small but powerful explosive device into the hot-hatch market with its new 308 GTi 270. Stand well back

2016 Volkswagen T6 Transporter review
Volkswagen has smartened up its genre-creating Transporter range, with better diesels and updated cabins

Caterham CSR 175 review
When invited to punt the Ford-powered Caterham CSR 175 we grabbed it

2016 Mazda MX-5 Club BBS Pack review
US buyers of the new Mazda MX-5 can option Brembo brakes, Bilstein suspension and forged BBS wheels. Should we envy them?

Range Rover Hybrid review
Electrified Rangie great in theory, but in practice?

Holden Astra GTC Sport Video Review
If sporty hatchbacks are your thing, we reckon the Holden Astra is one of the better looking options. This model has been around for a while, but it still represents good value, and it’s fun! Especially in what Holden calls, Sunny Melon Yellow.

Snackable Review: Holden Astra GTC Sport
It may not be the newest kid on the block, but keen drivers and the budget conscious will appreciate the Holden Astra.

2015 Volkswagen Polo GTI First Drive Review
Mini-Me Golf GTI is even better, a substantial step forward for an already accomplished performer.

2015 Renault Sport Megane RS275 Cup Premium First Drive Review
The current RenaultSport Megane 275 Cup Premium may be in the twilight of its life, but key upgrades – and brilliant fundamentals – keep it utterly engaging and hugely desirable.

2016 Audi TT Quattro Sport long-term car review
Not a bad ‘first car’ for Wheels’ newest family member. Tony O’Kane acquaints himself with his sleek new Audi TT long-termer.

HSV Clubsport R8 long-term review
Time for Damo to (re)connect with his inner Bogan, in his first – and likely last – Australian built long-termer.

2015 Mercedes-Benz GLC First Drive Review
Handsome C-Class based SUV finally makes it to Oz with plenty of standard spec and decent performance right out of the box.

2015 Hyundai Accent Active review
Cut-price Accent ushers in smaller, less powerful engine, but willing CVT makes up points for the car that replaces the i20 at the bottom of the Hyundai range.

Volvo XC90 safety technology in the cloud
New Volvo XC90 shows how car makers will use ‘The Cloud’ to save lives.

2015 Audi TT First Drive Review
The evolution of a design icon continues. The TT is beautiful and fun. It’s not a through and through sportscar, but it doesn’t need to be.

2015 Subaru Forester 2.0D-L long-term car review, part 4
Deceptively roomy Forester shifts the family … and its values

Snackable Review: Subaru Forester XT
The high-riding Subaru Forester is about as practical as family cars get while still being fun to drive.
